PURPOSE
The Cycle Status Indicator
Lights are used to follow the
progress of the dishwasher
cycle. Located on the front
of the dishwasher for front
control models, and located
on the top of the door for
hidden control models.
COMMENTS
Clean indicator glows when a cycle is finished.
If you select the Steam Sanitize option, when the Steam Sanitize cycle is
finished, the Sanitized indicator glows. If your dishwasher did not properly
sanitize your dishes, the light flashes at the end of the cycle. This can
happen if the cycle is interrupted, or the water could not be heated to the
required temperature.
The Clean and Sanitized lights go off when you open and close the door or
press CANCEL.
